Zephyr

A Zephyr-109 fighter

The Zephyr-109 Fighter was a class of fighercraft used mainly by Raiders.

Characteristics[]

Originally developed by the now dismantled Belt Alliance, this versatile ship was meant to chase down pirates and smugglers. While it is now in the service of those it was meant to combat, its design has not changed much since its creation.

This ship is quite manuverable, but it pales in comparison to a Starfury. Unlike most furies, it can enter atmospheres due to the prescence of aerofoils under the wings. These aerofoils, however, are critical weak spots.

This ship's thin design makes for a tiny target profile, so it can be hard to hit. It is, in fact, a two-seat ship, complete with an aft-facing plasma bolt cannon. Its normal weapons are a pair of 42mm plasma bolt cannons, and six missile hardpoints.

These ships are not jump-capable, and require carriers for long-range travels.

When Ckasaron got the Raiders on his side, he eventually found the planet Astragon. Once fully based there, he modified the ship, adding small yet powerful RCS thrusters that make it much more manuverable in combat. Ckasaron also found a way to add another pair of missiles, bringing the total number to eight.
